The inequality calamity. In Asia and the Pacific, the correlation between income and access is unequivocal—the wealthy have better access than the poor to water supply (Figure 6) and sanitation (Fig...
ure 7). In addition, the disparity is growing, especially in the burgeoning smaller cities across the region. The most striking inequality is in access to sanitation in smaller cities. Differences between richer and poorer communities amount to 96% in Nepal and 92% in Cambodia, India, and Pakistan. Municipal authorities in rapidly urbanizing towns and small cities often do not have the capacity to meet the demand for housing, leading to a proliferation of slums without, or at best with very poor, public services.
